Adt article, whatever ita merit. must be made known to the publio by mean of advertising. Advertising, however, though It can do much for a thing, cannot do everyining. it may reate sale for a time, but in order to insure a lasting demand! the thing advertised must hare solid worth. This Is the case with Lydia E. rink ham's Vegetable Compound. It has olid worth. Women everywhere hare learned this fact, and the result is that there Is lasting- and absolutely unequaled demand for it. It has the largest sale of any remedy for female ills in the world, and this has been the case for years. The reason for this is that Mrs. Pinkham claims nothing; that she is not entitled to claim. She can do all that she says she can do, and her twenty years of experience make her advice Invaluable. Her experience ha been hot only long- but world-wide, and she has helped more women back to health than any one elae in the world. These facts should, and do, have immense weight with all sensible women. Remember these are not wild statements but solid facts. Fmota About the Good Doing Done by Lydia Em Pinkham m Vegetable Compound In Cases of Change of Life, Bearing" Down Pains, Eto "I bad falling, inflammation and ulceration of the womb; backache, bearing-down pains; was so weak and nervous that I could not do my own work ; had sick headache, no appetite, numb spells, hands and feet cold all the time. I had good - doctors, but none of them did me any good. Through the advice of a lady friend I began the use of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and after taking one bottle I felt greatly relieved, and by the time I had need several bottles was completely cured, so that I eould do my work again. I am now passing through the change of life and using your Compound. Ithelpa me wonderfully. I want every suffer ing woman to know what your medi cine has done for me." Mas. W. M. Bull, New Palestine, Mo. "Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound saved my life and gave back a loving mother to eleven children, which was more then any doctor could have done or anv other medicine in the wide world. My trouble was child bed fever. The third day after my babe was born I took a chill, which was followed by a high fever. I would perspire until my clothes were as wet as though dipped in a tub of water. The chills and fever kept up for three days. My daughter got me a bottle of your Compound. The fourth, dose stopped the chills, and the fever also disappeared. My life was saved. My age at this critical time was forty nine." Lydia E. Bovqheb, Etna, Pa. Facts About Two Cases of Falling of the Uterus Recovered by Lydia Em Pinkham's Vegetable Compound,, " I suffered for fifteen years without finding any relief. I tried doctors, but nothing seemed to do me any good. I had falling of the womb, leucorrhoea, pain in the back and head, and those bearing-down pains. One bottle of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound did me so much good that 1 sent for four more, also two boxes of Liver Pills and one package of Sanative Wash. After using these I felt like a new woman." Mrs. O. A. Warns, Glidden, la., Box 220. " I was suffering with falling of the womb, painful menstruation, head ache, backache, pain In groins, ex tending into the limbs ; also a terrible pain at left of womb. The pain in my back was dreadful during menstrua tion, and my head would ache until I would be nearly crazy. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has given me great relief. I suffer no pain now, and I give your medicine all the praise." Mas. J. P. McSpaddu, Rosenberg, Tex. A Grateful Woman Recommends Lydia Em Pinkham's Vegetable Compound to Every Wife andMotherm " I have taken eight bottles of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound with most gratifying results. I had been married four years and had two children. I was all run down, had fall ing of womb with all ita distressing symptoms. I had doctored with a good physician, but I derived very little good from his treatment. After taking a few bottles of your medicine, I was able to do my work and nurse my aeven-months'-old babe. I recommend your medicine to every wife and mother. Had I time, I could write much more in ita praise. I bid yon Godspeed in your good work.' Mrs. L. A. Moaais, Welaka, Putnam Co., Fla. " Df.ab Mrs. Pinkham When I com menced the use of your remedies I was very badly off. Every two weeka I was troubled with flowing spells which made me very weak. I had two of the best doctors, but they did not seem to help me. They said my trouble was . caused from weakness and was noth ing to worry about. I felt tired all the time; had no ambition. I was growing worse all the time until I began the nse of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. I am now able to help bout the house, and am much Im proved In health." Mas. A.

Becker, at Nome, Alaska, in which he says: ''At present all lines of supplies, ex cept dog, are sufficiently plentiful Lumber is S50 per 1,000 feet, and hard to get. Milk and cream low, and rice and ham 60 cents per pound. Fuel will be short. Dog teams have cleaned the river and beach already.

Bonanza district has been lit on as by grasshoppers, and now there is a grand rush for Koksadapagra. "The big excitement is at Milk creek, 15 miles above Prince of Wales. York is attracting a big lot of atten tion, and good results are shown. Above Cape Kodney is the latent, called New Eldorado district, and it is surely good, along with a three mile free gold bearing ledge of quarts. The trail is hot with people for this district. There will no doubt be a big stampede for Norton creek, as $14 a pan is se cured. Other cxecks yield 10 and 15 cents at the surface. "The beach is being worked with good results, and coarse gold at times shows up. Several $5 and f 13 nug gets, and one worth S7, were found about one and a half miles up, and on top of the ground."

While excavating at Fort Setrens re cently for the new barracks, an old burying ground was discovered and several coffins unearthed. No one seems to now anything about this ancient burial place, and no mention can be found of it in the records at the fort. W. W, Fish, a millionaire of Elmira, N. Y., and Professor B. F. ISarge have leased 1,200 acres of choice lauds on the Yakima Indian reservation at Simoo station, and have a large force of men engaged in plowing and seed ing.

Brndstreet's says: Trsde advices are, as a whole, cheerful, and the stretch of values is apparently nna bated, though some soft spots still pre sent themselves. A permanent feature this week has been the increase in strength of values of farm products nearly all the cereals, pork products and cotton advaucing, while materials for manufacture, and the products thereof, have generally remained steady or unchanged. Manufacturers of shoos are busy am weather couditious have rather favored the retailer by enabling him to dispose of some curried -over stock. Wool is fairly steady, but niauufao- turers are out of the market and cou cessions cau be obtained, though Lou don advices are better. Southern iron advices are of steady prices, and of rather more iuqnry on export account. Except immediately in Chicago, whore idleness of many thousands of invu has came dullness in the machinery and kindred trades, the Western iron situation seems a strong one.

In "Maciulllau'a Magaalua," . Lit ton Faulkner tells the story of the "French Invasion of Ireland." Here la one terrible incident of a terrible crime: On pathetic picture remains of this last aud terrible chapter In the abor tive Insurrection iu Mayo Iu the record of the fate of oue of the wildest and poorest of the poor and wild villages of the Laggan. Here where Downpat rick Head stands out against the ocean. la a striking natural curiosity called the Poolunshanthuiia, a chasm nearly half a mile Iu length, whk-h cuts clean through the headland, and from the top of which the clear green water caa be seen 80 feet below. Near the bot tout of the chasm and along ita whole length runs a ledgo of rock, bare when the tide is out, but covered by many feet of water when It rises. The peas antry, returned from the rebellion. were busy oue October day endeavor lug to save the remuaut of their neg lected harvest, wheu suddenly the alarm was spread that the troops from Klllnla were at baud. Well kuowlug what they had to ex pect from the terrible Frnser Feud- bles, the rebel harvesters, surprised and unable to escape to the mountains, made for the adjaceut cliffs, whose rough faces they were used to climbing. and with whose caves they were 1 miliar. It was with mauy of t lie in coustant diversion to descend to the ledge of rock at the Pooliiashauthana In pursuit of seals or seablrds' nests, to which they could galu access by means of a rope let down from the top of the cliff. It chanced that at the mo ment of the soldiers' raid the tide was out, and quickly bethinking them selves that there was a place of safety In which they might find a temporary refuge, they descended to the lodge, the rope being held for them by young woman, who was to return and release them as soon as the soldiers bad withdrawn. Many hours they waited there, ex pecting every moment that the rope would be lowered by their friend. Bui though the soldiers had retired long ere the tide rose, the woman came not. Terrified by the presence of the mili tary she bad tied to the bills without re membering her charge, or apprising others of the hiding-place of these Bve- and-twenty stalwart peasants. Night came on, and with it the re morseless tide running high above the level of the ledge; and when morning dawned the villagers, looking down into the chasm, saw the lifeless corpses of their sons, brothers aud husbands washing to and fro with the Idle splash of the waves in the abyss of tho Pool- oashanthano. GOOD EFFEGTS OF SINGING. Valnuble Form of Kierclae for rer- sons with Weuk Langs Many medical men are now recora meuding their patients to study sing- tug, which Is a most salutary exercise, both by vlitue of its Influence on the emotions, on the respiratory move ments aud on the development of the lungs, says the St. Louis lilobe-Demo- crat. Nothing better shows the beue- flc-ial Influence of singing In developing the chest and warding off luug disease than the freedom from pulmouury af fections among professional singers, Moreover, their general health Is ex ceptionally good, and this is probably a large measure attributable, not only to their necessarily careful plan of living, but also to the exercise of their calling. Some physicians main tain that for defective chest develop ment aud Iu chronic heart trouble sing ing is an uncounted exercise. The singer should be clad so as to allow absolute freedom of the chest move ments; there should be no constriction of the neck or waist; the collar should be low and ample, and If corsets are worn they should be roomy and loose. Oue error Into which singers, aud espe- elall amateurs, fall. Is to practice too much. The length of time to be given to the exercise depends much ujion the character and condition of the voice. Specific rules cannot be given. Metba, when asked how many hours of prac tice a day she would advise for a pupil, said: "No hours for a beginner, but minutes. I, myself, never practice more than one hour a day, and usually much less." Dr. II. Holbrook Curtis consid ers forty minutes or an hour of actual voice practice dally Is quite satllclent to develop most voices. This time should be divided Into periods of ten or fifteen minutes each. Regularity, and not long practice hours, which only fatigue the voice and wear It out. Is the greatest aid to advancement The voice develops very gradually, and any at tempt to force Ita growth Is a fatal mistake. Homo of the Largest Man.
